Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| In all three study arms, meal interventions will be performed under strictly controlled conditions. Secretin levels will be measured at the following times 0min, 15min, 30min, 60min, 90min, 120min, 150min, 180min. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary outcome are resting energy consumption (before and after meals, before and after cold exposure), body and skin temperature, activation of brown adipose tissue by MSOT, metabolic markers such as blood glucose and triglycerides, and gut microbiome composition. In study arm 1, together with Prof. Karampinos, we want to optimize the mapping of adipose tissue in MRI to distinguish non-invasively white and brown adipose tissue using magnetic resonance imaging and a recently developed method (PDFF - proton density fat fraction). | — |
